The two looked at each other, and they didn't know how long it took before they finally recovered from the shock.
Lu Ci's mouth was still as big as ever, and he said blankly: "I...did I hear correctly just now? The Marquis of Qin killed Chen Mou and Chen Li, and also annihilated the Snow Wolf Brigade?!"
"This...how is this possible?!"
"The Snow Wolf Brigade is one of the most elite cavalry in Beidi. Even if it cannot be defeated, it can still escape!"
Lu Ci felt like he was in a dream. When he heard the three words "Snow Wolf Brigade", he felt weak in his calves. But in just one night, the Snow Wolf Brigade was destroyed by Qin Feng? You know, with the Snow Wolf Brigade's combat effectiveness, as long as they decide to retreat, no army in the world can stop the Snow Wolf Brigade.
The news of the annihilation of the Snow Wolf Brigade spread throughout the country in a very short time with the autumn wind in the north of the country.
When the King of Beidi learned of this, he locked himself in the study for a whole day. It was not until the next day that the King of Beidi summoned Li Yu and Chen Si.
After a day and night of adjustment, King Beidi's mood was still extremely heavy and depressed.
When King Beidi looked at Chen Si, he found that Chen Si's eyes were full of sadness and anger. Then King Beidi remembered that the commander and deputy general of the Snow Wolf Brigade were all Chen Si's brothers.
At this moment, Chen Si must be feeling grief-stricken.
Thinking of this, King Beidi tried his best to keep his tone as calm as possible, and said sincerely: "Chen Aiqing, my condolences."
The corner of Chen Si's mouth twitched, but he still pretended to be calm and saluted King Beidi: "Your Majesty also expresses his condolences."
For Chen Si, he only lost two clan brothers, but for the Beidi King, he lost the entire Snow Wolf Brigade. It can be said that this was the darkest day in Beidi since the end of the National War.
Although the King of Beidi wanted to go straight to the point and get to the point, considering Chen Si's mood, the King of Beidi still followed the rules and first praised Chen Mou and Chen Li for their great achievements and commended them.
"Chen Mou and Chen Li are my two most proud generals. Chen Li is brave, while Chen Si is brave. Since the two led the Snow Wolf Brigade, the Snow Wolf Brigade has become even more powerful, winning consecutive battles for ten years. In the past few years, I have not met any opponents, and I have made great contributions to the expansion of territory for Dadi."
"The issue of posthumous title will be decided after discussion by the Ministry of Rites."
Having said this, the Beidi King changed the topic and asked softly: "Chen Aiqing, up to now, I still can't accept the fact that the Snow Wolf Brigade was wiped out. Can you give me some advice?"
Chen Si closed his eyes and took a deep breath, suppressed his boundless hatred for Qin Feng, calmed down his mood, and then responded in a deep voice: "My lord, there are only four words to comment on the destruction of the Snow Wolf Brigade. "
King Beidi quickly asked: "It doesn't matter if you say it."
Chen Si's eyes suddenly became sharp and he blurted out: "It's your own fault!"
As soon as these words came out, King Beidi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
If these four words were spoken by someone else, the Beidi King would definitely be furious, but after all, Chen Si is Chen Mou and Chen Li's clan brother. Since he has such a low opinion of this matter, there must be a reason for it.
The King of Beidi asked patiently: "Why do you say this?"
Chen Si did not beat around the bush, and analyzed the matter based on the information and details obtained from the Ministry of War and Hei Weisi: "Your Majesty, Chen Mou led a thousand vanguards to attack Lu Ci's station at night. When he encountered enemy reinforcements, After arriving, we immediately chose to retreat. At least until this point in the battle, Chen Mou's command was extremely correct."
"But what happened next, Chen Mou was greatly disappointed."
"Qin Feng personally led the troops to pursue him. He must have learned that the Snow Wolf Brigade was attacking at night, so he used himself as a bait to attract the Snow Wolf Brigade to take the bait. But the facts proved that Chen Mou did not resist the temptation. After learning Qin Feng's identity , so he intended to capture Qin Feng and eliminate the harm to Dadi."
"But facts have proven time and again that killing Qin Feng is even more difficult than reaching the sky!"
"If Chen Mou focuses on retreating, even if he is overtaken by Qin Feng, he can still fight and retreat. At least more than half of the cavalry can be saved and safely withdraw to the camp. And as long as the retreat is less than fifty miles away from the camp, Qin Feng will not Dare to chase again. In this way, this night attack will end with a complete victory."
"Unfortunately, from the moment Chen Mou intended to counterattack, Chen Mou was destined to die. Qin Feng could at least annihilate Chen Mou and the vanguard of the Thousand Snow Wolf Brigade."
The King of Beidi was thoughtful and felt that Chen Mou's analysis made sense.
After all, with those thousand vanguard cavalry running through the night and making an emergency retreat, the physical strength of the war horses was extremely valuable. Any extra movement would deplete the horse power and make them imprisoned, unable to escape.
When cavalry fights against cavalry, it seems they are fighting against humans, but in reality they are fighting against horses.
Although the Beidi horses have advantages, the war horses under Qin Feng's command are not simply horses originating from the Liang Kingdom, but are a mixture of three war horses: "Liang Kingdom horses, Beidi horses, and plateau horses." In this way, Beidima's advantage was offset to the greatest extent. In addition, Qin Feng implemented the "three horses and two riders" tactic, relying on spare horses to preserve the physical strength of the war horses.
Therefore, it becomes easier to pursue the Snow Wolf Brigade.
Chen Si took a deep breath and continued: "If Chen Li had not gone to support, or had learned that the opponent's general was Qin Feng, and had not blindly retaliated, then only Chen Mou would have been lost, and the entire army would not have been wiped out like now. The current situation is that not only the Snow Wolf Brigade has been completely wiped out, but Feng Chen and thousands of his soldiers have also been captured."
"According to the reliable information brought back by Ye Xiao, Feng Chen has surrendered to Qin Feng, which will undoubtedly further strengthen the Sangzhou Imperial Party."
"Your Majesty, things have developed in a direction beyond our control."
The King of Beidi looked serious. At this moment, he realized what Qin Feng's commotion in Sangzhou meant to the entire Dadi.
Even the King of Beidi, who was as immobile as a mountain, couldn't help but sigh: "First I lost the Eagle Ridge, and then I lost the Snow Wolf Brigade. If Qin Feng continues to make trouble in Sangzhou, who knows what surprises he will bring to me. .”
"Chen Aiqing, Li Aiqing, what do you two think should be done next?"
Chen Si blurted out without any hesitation: "I think we should make three preparations now."
"First, urge Qin Feng to go to Beijing quickly and let him leave Sangzhou. Secondly, we must not be weak in the military. We must find ways to get rid of the Sangzhou imperial party, or find ways to suppress it and slow down the opponent's growth. Thirdly, Find a way to cause Qin Feng's backyard to catch fire and make Qin Feng lose the support of Emperor Liang."
Li Yu, who was on the side, heard these words and said in a deep voice: "The first two points, what General Chen said are true, but the third point will only be self-defeating."
"Now it is not the Emperor of Liang who supports Qin Feng, but the Emperor of Liang who is afraid of Qin Feng and has to avoid his edge."
